Krafft: Plans, coupes, elevations des plus belles maisons et des hotels construits à Paris et dans les environs (vol. 1)
Abstract
Austrian-born Jean-Charles Krafft (1764-1833) is remembered for his detailed documentation of “the most elegant” French neoclassical buildings. Krafft verified particulars through correspondence with architects and on-site drawings. Each building is shown to scale in elevation, plan and section. Annotations give architect and building name, location, date, and room functions.
